Ms tan, yr father here. Yr youngest sis told me of yr 3As for yr modules. Well done! Looks like you can go for PHD.



nice try,



How many oceans & continents are there in the world?

Consolidated answers from several people, including yours truly stupidly:
For oceans - 3, 4, 5, 7
For continents - 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11
And the classic - Africa is in Asia (it wasn't me.)






thou shall never be stumped.

According to wiki,
The world ocean is subdivided into the Southern Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean, the Indian Ocean, the Pacific Ocean and, arguably, the Arctic Ocean.
That gives us 5 oceans.

According to worldatlas,
Continents BY SIZE #1 Asia - (44,579,000 sq km)
#2 Africa - (30,065,000 sq km)
#3 North America - (24,256,000 sq km)
#4 South America - (17,819,000 sq km)
#5 Antarctica - (13,209,000 sq km)
#6 Europe - (9,938,000 sq km)
#7 Australia/Oceania - (7,687,000 sq km)
7 continents deffo.
